Now that RHEL 5.6 has added PHP 5.3 (php53-* packages), is there any plan on what to do with the EPEL PHP packages? If I did my query right, it looks like the following EPEL packages are built for PHP 5.1 only (by source RPM):
libpuzzle php-extras php-facedetect php-idn php-magickwand php-pecl-Fileinfo php-pecl-geoip php-pecl-gmagick php-pecl-imagick php-pecl-json php-pecl-lzf php-pecl-mailparse php-pecl-mongo php-pecl-radius php-pecl-runkit php-pecl-xdebug php-pecl-zip
It looks like almost all would just need to be rebuilt (or rather a php53-foo package added I guess), but there would need to be a different php-extras (the source RPM is tied to the specific PHP version).
